Categories of protein tertiary structure
A summary of functional annotation of the most ancestral translation protein folds
In molecular biology, protein fold classes are broad categories of protein tertiary structure topology. They describe groups of proteins that share similar amino acid and secondary structure proportions. Each class contains multiple, independent protein superfamilies (i.e. are not necessarily evolutionarily related to one another).[1][2][3]
